Happy Passover!

Tonight we will be celebrating the first day of Passover (Pesach), which is a Jewish Easter. I'm celebrating mainly for secular reasons. Also, that's my last name. So today's recipe will be Pesach-oriented.

I figured that most everyone will be writing about their variations of a matzo-ball soup. While I love that soup, I decided to write about something that's traditional for my family, and Jews from the Caucasus area. Both of my parents are from there, so that's what we eat. It also happens to be my most favorite dish.

It's called "Hoya-Goosh," which literally translates as "eggs and meat." We make it with poultry, and it is divine.
